Article Statistics

The Article Statistics endpoint returns the total number of crypto news articles published across 12 predefined time windows — from the last hour up to the last 30 days. All counts are returned in a single request with no parameters.

Use this to:

• Display an "articles published today" counter in your app
• Calibrate pagination — estimate how many pages to expect before fetching articles
• Monitor publishing activity over time (e.g. detect slow weekend periods)
• Build volume trend charts alongside sentiment data

Použitie pre odhad stránkovania

Pred fetchovaním všetkých článkov zavolaj tento endpoint a vypočítaj počet stránok:

const stats = await fetchStatistics()
const totalPages = Math.ceil(stats.countArticlesLast24h / 100) // limit=100

Takto vieš vopred koľko requestov bude potrebných a môžeš používateľovi zobraziť progress bar.
